Dedication.
p ass uiy Rood fortune to be pres
on tho 9th inst., at the dedica-
<tf an Evangelical Lutheran
Enroll, recently erected to the glory
ifOod, »n the tinpi-etending hamlet
Fertehtville, Shenandoah county,
V„. This little village is locator)
five miles from Mt. Jackson,
si from New Market, and two and a
west of “Forrest Station,'’ on
lK , tine of the B. &O.RB. Tbs
town is bnilt upon a munition of
rocks, and the surrounding country
i* rough and nndnlating, with litre
m \ there a sharp hill, but tbe soil is
fertile* and the hard breast of mother
Jjwrtb yields a “ abundant rewant for
the skill aud labor expended,
lu reaching tho point of our des-
lion from tho station, we rode by
winding way through an almost
itinnous stretch of magnificent
their luxuriant foliage and
drooping brandies affording a
ini protection from the scorching
of the sun, and occasionally
suting a picturesque and most
tattBtiful archway of living green,
lu the profound solitude of these
deep, dark woods, we think the
yearning of the pensive sentimental
j*t might be fully gratified :
“Retiring from the populous noise. I seek
This unfrequented place to find some
ease.”
Tbe surroundings of tbe place at an
early da.v, we suppose, suggested tbe
same as more appropriate than
“Hesse Cassd,” its origiua! design;*
tioti; at all events we regard it os
among the uurnber of happy events
when Hesse Casnel went uuder tbe
wave, and Forrestville rose to the
surface. ,
I was courteously welcomed by our
felicitous and portly brother, (Rev. J.
A. Snyder), who was ou tbe qui rire
for somebody in particular. Com
fortably domiciled with one of bis
veterans, we were at once in a con
dition to auswer all questions, great
and small, and prepared gracefully
to submit to the very pleasant pro
cess of beiug bored, just when I
wanted to be let alone iu order to
gather up a few ideas for the uight
services. To tho credit of Bro. 8.,
miue host, aud his family, they had
(which 1 have fonnd is not always
the case) the good sense, aud, what
is equally important, the good man
uers to appreciate the situation, and
to deal tenderly with yonr corres
pondent hi this regard.
The sombre mantle of uight hav
ing gently settled down upon hill
and dale, we were summoned to the
house of God by the silvery tones of
Uu> “church going bell” ns they rang
out, clear ami lull, in the calm, part
ing hours of a day whose morning
had been disturbed by showers of
drenchiug rain and fearful dis
charges of electricity. An entrance
having been gained, we noticed, as
we passed up the aisle, that Che
Imk*** was well packed, aud the won
der was where-all the people came
Irom iu that sylvan region ; but the
wonder was far greater next day,
when the dwellers among the bills
and the vales of the surrounding
villages aud towns, and those who
had their habitations along the
streams, came inuring in by hun
dreds on horseback and on foot, and
in vehicles of all kinds and styles,
and concentrated upon tho brow of
tho hill crowned by the church, it
truly was a mighty gathering of the
“hill country” upon that delightfully
pleasant and ever memorable Sab
bath iu August, when an additional
temple was set apart as a dwelling
place for tbe Most High.
Before proceeding further I will
give the reader a brief description of
the edifice and its appointments as
they appeared to me. The focalion, all
things considered, in our judgment, is
fortunate, neither presumptuously
prominent nor mawkishly modest, and
* c * u ^ r al and easy of approach in
four directions. 11 is a framebnilding,
weather-boarded, rests u|>on a fine
^oue foundation, uml is enclosed
« «th a substantial fence. Tbe church
premises afford a fine opportunity
m improvement and ornamentation;
and we hope that the coining fall will
to embraced to that end, and that a
goodly number of evergreens and
jjjtor choice trees may be planted.

pretty chandalier sffbrds light to the
body of the church, whilst the pul
pit it made tamiuous by elegant
stands of light supported mi either
side by baadnomely wrought eul
ttuins. Ou the day of dedication the
house had already oust about
all ot which had been ;mid. It was,
however, only partially painted on
the inside j and aa the eoogregation
contemplated having this thoroughly
done externally aad internally, and
also to procure stoves, carpeting,
matting, aud altar furniture, an ap
jveal was maile In behalf of three
objects, and between two and three
hundred dollars realise*!. The little
congregation of faithful and fOeml
Lutherans at F. may justly congratu
late itself upon the complete merfm
that has attended its effort*. The
church, with tbe blesaiog of Ood,
stands as a monument to their praise;
and as a most forcible illustration of
what a feeble congregation, having a
mind to work, can accomplish for
the glory of God aud the good of
man.
On Saturday afternoon the pastor
had preached, and held services pre
punitory to the administration of
the Lord's 8upper ou the following
Monday. On Saturday night the
writer preached. Also Sunday, lb
A. M., night and Monday morning.
On Sunday, as already intimated,
the attendance was Ttry large; and
it was estimated that at least 1,000
person* were in the chnrcli and in>
mediately around it, listening to the
speaker as he unfolded the erwiled
nature and glorious mission of the
“kingdom of Worea.* I may here
observe that during the entire arriee
of services, the singing cominctel
by tbe choir was appropriate, and
rendered la excellent style. On
Sunday night the attendance wan
very large, and on Monday morning,
contrary to expectation, the house
was well filled. A thanksgiving
sermon was preached according to
previous appointment, after which
the Lord's Sapper was di*f»e«*ed to
qnite a goodly number of Cbrtat'*
witnesses, who thus confessed liiw
before tbe world in the fond ex pec
tation of sharing in his favor when
he shall come in the glory of the
Father to judge the quick and dead.
In connection with this narrative I
will awlmiit Jk four relkntioos at the
hazard of rspsating what I may have
more than wire stated in tbe column*
of tbe VWhr. Ob! ideas, like oh)
wine, if good, may he brought out
frequently for the entertainmeut of
friend*.
I. 1 think it would prove mutually
beneficial to onr miumters and metu
bers di«l they know more of each
other prrsonalif. It would be the
incjius of correcting mtat^ocepiion*
in regard to onr church, her doc
trines uml usage* ; would establish
new ties of friendship, and than en
large the circle of btotherhood; a
clearer idea would he obtained of
the various and varied circumstance*
that condition the status of ofher
congregations, and thi« won Id pro I**
Wy lead to n s|Hrit of fort ear am*
and moderation in pressing our pern
liar riewa upon others. There ta
something to be learned in going
about with eyes and ears open ; ami
there is something that may be done,
if wise as to time and mode. Oar
people are always pleased to tew and
entertain ns with the very best the
bans** sffbrds. They appreciate onr
ministration*. Tbe bonds of rhrts
tian sympathy and fellowship are
drown closer by intercourse, aud as
the hour of separation draws near
we regret to part, ami are sorry and
somewhut surprised that so much of
hidden worth should have so long
been conce ded from our knowledge.
In conclusion upon this topic, my
advice Is, brethren, go where you
are called upon, unless good reasons
indeed exist for refusing to comply.
II. I should feel derelict in duty
to the congregation st F. were 1 to
close my commitnicatioo at this
|K>int. ! wish to add a few console
rations for tbe encouragement uf those
who, being poor, yet haring a seal
for the glory of God's house, coulinue
to worship with fear and trembling
iu “free churches” with all their st
tcudant inconvenience* ami hbihj)-
anccs. Here we have the noble ex
ample of a congregation (mine of
whom are wealthy, amt numbering
about sixty, the male portion of
which doe* not exceed one third)
erecting a church, and paying lor it
whet* completed at a cost of some
$2,.j00. They had a “free church”
in which they could worship, but
they got sick of It, sick unto death,
and looking about for a remedy,
nothing promised relief but a new
Evangelical Lutheran church, aud
so they went to work will* a will !«>
put one np, and certainly they have
succeeded moat admirably.
The congregation at F. did not
